BACKGROUND. The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) rapidly progressed to a global pandemic. Although some patients totally recover from COVID-19 pneumonia, the disease’s long-term effects on the brain still need to be explored. METHODS. We recruited 51 patients with 2 subtypes of COVID-19 (19 mild and 32 severe) with no specific neurological manifestations at the acute stage and no obvious lesions on the conventional MRI 3 months after discharge. Changes in gray matter morphometry, cerebral blood flow (CBF), and white matter (WM) microstructure were investigated using MRI. The relationship between brain imaging measurements and inflammation markers was further analyzed. -

Dorsolateral Prefrontal Cortex-Based Control with an Implanted Brain–Computer Interface
www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Dorsolateral prefrontal cortex‑based control with an implanted brain–computer interface Sacha Leinders 1, Mariska J. Vansteensel 1, Mariana P. Branco 1, Zac V. Freudenburg1, Elmar G. M. Pels1, Benny Van der Vijgh1, Martine J. E. Van Zandvoort2, Nicolas F. Ramsey1* & Erik J. Aarnoutse 1 The objective of this study was to test the feasibility of using the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex as a signal source for brain–computer interface control in people with severe motor impairment. We implanted two individuals with locked‑in syndrome with a chronic brain–computer interface designed to restore independent communication. The implanted system (Utrecht NeuroProsthesis) included electrode strips placed subdurally over the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex. In both participants, counting backwards activated the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex consistently over the course of 47 and 22months, respectively. Moreover, both participants were able to use this signal to control a cursor in one dimension, with average accuracy scores of 78 ± 9% (standard deviation) and 71 ± 11% (chance level: 50%), respectively. Brain– computer interface control based on dorsolateral prefrontal cortex activity is feasible in people with locked‑in syndrome and may become of relevance for those unable to use sensorimotor signals for control. Locked-in syndrome (LIS) is characterized by intact cognition and (almost) complete loss of voluntary movement1. Brain–computer interface (BCI) systems allow computer control with brain activity and can there- fore provide an alternative communication channel to people with LIS. BCI systems depending on self-initiated modulation of brain activity generally measure from sensorimotor areas, e.g.2–9. However, not all people with LIS may be able to reliably modulate sensorimotor activity, due to for instance atrophy secondary to neurode- generative disease10,11, damage afer stroke or injury, or atypical neural activity 12. -
Quantitative Analysis of Axon Collaterals of Single Pyramidal Cells
Yang et al. BMC Neurosci (2017) 18:25 DOI 10.1186/s12868-017-0342-7 BMC Neuroscience RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Quantitative analysis of axon collaterals of single pyramidal cells of the anterior piriform cortex of the guinea pig Junli Yang1,2*, Gerhard Litscher1,3* , Zhongren Sun1*, Qiang Tang1, Kiyoshi Kishi2, Satoko Oda2, Masaaki Takayanagi2, Zemin Sheng1,4, Yang Liu1, Wenhai Guo1, Ting Zhang1, Lu Wang1,3, Ingrid Gaischek3, Daniela Litscher3, Irmgard Th. Lippe5 and Masaru Kuroda2 Abstract Background: The role of the piriform cortex (PC) in olfactory information processing remains largely unknown. The anterior part of the piriform cortex (APC) has been the focus of cortical-level studies of olfactory coding, and asso- ciative processes have attracted considerable attention as an important part in odor discrimination and olfactory information processing. Associational connections of pyramidal cells in the guinea pig APC were studied by direct visualization of axons stained and quantitatively analyzed by intracellular biocytin injection in vivo. Results: The observations illustrated that axon collaterals of the individual cells were widely and spatially distrib- uted within the PC, and sometimes also showed a long associational projection to the olfactory bulb (OB). The data showed that long associational axons were both rostrally and caudally directed throughout the PC, and the intrinsic associational fibers of pyramidal cells in the APC are omnidirectional connections in the PC. Within the PC, associa- tional axons typically followed rather linear trajectories and irregular bouton distributions. Quantitative data of the axon collaterals of two pyramidal cells in the APC showed that the average length of axonal collaterals was 101 mm, out of which 79 mm (78% of total length) were distributed in the PC. -

Efficacy of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Targets for Depression
Efficacy of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Targets for Depression Is Related to Intrinsic Functional Connectivity with the Subgenual Cingulate Michael D. Fox, Randy L. Buckner, Matthew P. White, Michael D. Greicius, and Alvaro Pascual-Leone Background: Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) to the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) is used clinically for the treatment of depression. However, the antidepressant mechanism remains unknown and its therapeutic efficacy remains limited. Recent data suggest that some left DLPFC targets are more effective than others; however, the reasons for this heterogeneity and how to capitalize on this information remain unclear. Methods: Intrinsic (resting state) functional magnetic resonance imaging data from 98 normal subjects were used to compute functional connectivity with various left DLPFC TMS targets employed in the literature. Differences in functional connectivity related to differences in previously reported clinical efficacy were identified. This information was translated into a connectivity-based targeting strategy to identify optimized left DLPFC TMS coordinates. Results in normal subjects were tested for reproducibility in an independent cohort of 13 patients with depression. Results: Differences in functional connectivity were related to previously reported differences in clinical efficacy across a distributed set of cortical and limbic regions. Dorsolateral prefrontal cortex TMS sites with better clinical efficacy were more negatively correlated (anticorre- lated) with the subgenual cingulate. Optimum connectivity-based stimulation coordinates were identified in Brodmann area 46. Results were reproducible in patients with depression. Conclusions: Reported antidepressant efficacy of different left DLPFC TMS sites is related to the anticorrelation of each site with the subgenual cingulate, potentially lending insight into the antidepressant mechanism of TMS and suggesting a role for intrinsically anticor- related networks in depression. -

Neural Correlates Underlying Change in State Self-Esteem Hiroaki Kawamichi 1,2,3, Sho K

Hamano2,5,6, Ryo Kitada 2,7, Eri Nakagawa2, Takanori Kochiyama8 & Norihiro Sadato 2,5 Received: 21 July 2017 State self-esteem, the momentary feeling of self-worth, functions as a sociometer involved in Accepted: 11 January 2018 maintenance of interpersonal relations. How others’ appraisal is subjectively interpreted to change Published: xx xx xxxx state self-esteem is unknown, and the neural underpinnings of this process remain to be elucidated. We hypothesized that changes in state self-esteem are represented by the mentalizing network, which is modulated by interactions with regions involved in the subjective interpretation of others’ appraisal. To test this hypothesis, we conducted task-based and resting-state fMRI. Participants were repeatedly presented with their reputations, and then rated their pleasantness and reported their state self- esteem. To evaluate the individual sensitivity of the change in state self-esteem based on pleasantness (i.e., the subjective interpretation of reputation), we calculated evaluation sensitivity as the rate of change in state self-esteem per unit pleasantness. Evaluation sensitivity varied across participants, and was positively correlated with precuneus activity evoked by reputation rating. Resting-state fMRI revealed that evaluation sensitivity was positively correlated with functional connectivity of the precuneus with areas activated by negative reputation, but negatively correlated with areas activated by positive reputation. Thus, the precuneus, as the part of the mentalizing system, serves as a gateway for translating the subjective interpretation of reputation into state self-esteem. -
An Analysis of Functional Neuroimaging Studies of Dorsolateral Prefrontal Cortical Activity in Depression

Recent research has indicated that current methods used to localize the site of stimulation in dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) are significantly inaccurate. However, little information is available on which to base a choice of stimulation site. The aim of the current study was to systematically examine imaging studies in depression to attempt to identify whether there is a pattern of imaging results that suggests an optimal site of stimulation localization. We analysed all imaging studies published prior to 2005 that examined patients with major depression. Studies reporting activation in DLPFC were identified. The DLPFC regions identified in these studies were analysed using the Talairach and Rajkowska–Goldman-Rakic coordinate systems. In addition, we conducted a quantitative meta-analysis of resting studies and studies of serotonin reuptake inhibitor antidepressant treatment. -

M. ZEKI* From the Department of Anatomy, University College London, London WC1E 6BT (Received 31 March 1977) SUMMARY 1. Recordings were made from single neurones, or small clusters of cells, in five prestriate visual areas of rhesus monkey cortex. The cells were studied for their binocularity, as well as for their orientational, motion and colour preferences. In all, 1500 cells were studied, 250 cells for each of the areas V2, V3, V3A and the motion area ofthe posterior bank ofthe superior temporal sulcus, and 500 cells for V4. All the cells referred to in this study can be placed in one prestriate area or another unambiguously. 2. The great majority of cells in all areas were binocularly driven, without mono- cular preferences. Within each area, there were cells that either preferred binocular stimulation markedly, or were responsive to binocular stimulation only. The ocular interaction histograms for all areas are remarkably similar when tested at a fixed disparity. 3. Over 70 % of the cells in areas V2, V3 and V3A were selective for orientation. The receptive fields of cells were larger in V3 and V3A than in V2. By contrast, less than 50 % of the cells in V4 and the motion area of the superior temporal sulcus were orientation selective. 4. Directionally selective cells were found in all areas. But they were present in small numbers (< 15 %) in areas V2, V3, V3A and V4. -

Supporting Information for “Endocast Morphology of Homo naledi from the Dinaledi Chamber, South Africa” Ralph L. Holloway, Shawn D. Hurst, Heather M. Garvin, P. Thomas Schoenemann, William B. Vanti, Lee R. Berger, and John Hawks What follows are our descriptions, illustrations, some basic interpretation, and a more specific discussion of the functional, comparative, and taxonomic issues surrounding these hominins. We use the neuroanatomical nomenclature from Duvernoy (19). DH1 Occipital The DH1 occipital fragment (Figs 1, S2) measures ca 105 mm in width between left temporo- occipital incisure and right sigmoid sinus. It is 61 mm in height on the left side, and 47 mm on the right side. The fragment covers the entire left and mostly complete right occipital lobes. The lobes are strongly asymmetrical, with the left clearly larger than the right, and more posteriorly protruding. There are faint traces of a lateral remnant of the lunate sulcus on the left side, and a dorsal bounding lunate as well (#4 and #6 in Fig 1). The right side shows a very small groove at the end of the lateral sinus, which could be a remnant of the lunate sulcus. The major flow from the longitudinal sinus is to the right. Small portions of both cerebellar lobes, roughly 15 mm in height are present. There is a suggestion of a great cerebellar sulcus on the right side. The width from the left lateral lunate impression to the midline is 43mm. The distance from left occipital pole (the most posteriorly projecting point, based on our best estimate of the proper orientation) to the mid-sagittal plane is 30 mm.
